Chlorella
projects astronomy and stuff to do with space
Spirulina and chlorella are two types of algae often considered for use in space missions. They are rich in nutrients and can be cultivated in closed systems, making them ideal for sustainable life support in spacecraft. Additionally, their ability to produce oxygen and absorb carbon dioxide can help maintain a balanced atmosphere for astronauts during long-duration space flights.
Chlorophyll and accessory pigments allow algae to get energy from the sun. This is used for manufacturing of food by the algae.
The "algae" most people think of as algae are Cyanobacteria, *blue green algae*. By the name of the phylum you can guess that this "algae" is a bacteria, you are right. Scientifically speaking, true algae is only found in the Kingdom Protista, it is not plant, bacteria, fungi, or animal. We call Kingdom Protista the "grab bag kingdom" because it is home to the wierdest organisms that just don't fit well into other kingdoms. An example a true algae is Rhodophyta (red algae) Rhod=Red, Phyta=Algae. But to the lay person, they will mistake most Cyanobacteria for algae, and unless you are a biologist, this is just fine :)
There are dozens of scientific research satellites. You must be more specific.
Chlorella and cyanobacteria are commonly used algae in space research due to their ability to convert carbon dioxide into oxygen through photosynthesis, which is essential for life support systems in space environments. These algae can also provide nutrition for astronauts through their protein and vitamin content.

It was used as a potential algae based food for long periods in space
explain why algae have been taken aboard space station

Space stations are manned vehicles used for scientific research. Satellites are unmanned robotic vehicles for scientific research.
it is based on which method to be used for oil extraction from algae. For Eg. if you use soxhlet the oil will be appeared in greenish coluor, for Bligh and Dyer method the oil will be light brown in colour.
